It isn't a world beater but dovetails nicely into the space.Does anybody know anything about that great looking building on the right of the development in the second pic? Very northern European looking.It's a shame that its side will possibly be blocked by the new construction.I love that roof.

Antsy Court looks like a boring heap of shit. How many seconds did it take to draw that up?

Yes looks like another quick draw load of bollocks, wont see tourists taking pictures there of course lol! who lets all this heap of shit buildings get approved so easily? because they are certainly helping increase ugliness .

i have been told by the planning department in Bham council that no more appartments will be given the green light from now on in Jewellary Quarter. I wait to see if this is true when the developers wave a load of cash.....

Very interesting. Especially considering the huge development they want to call St Georges which I imagine going through initial talks/planning now.

I get the industrial look - the size, shape and materials all fit in well. In the render below it has a monolithic presence. The frontage does have the look of a modern mill.
But there's no 'draw' to the building. I can't see any detail in any of the photos posted by Foxy. I think it would look better if the central section (the part that's one storey higher than the rest of the building) had a crown to it - nothing grand, just some simple detail. Or if the top of the walls had some flourish, something that's common on older brick buildings (see photos in post # 99).

I assume the site is the wedge between the road and the canal at the "Subway" end. The visual isn't a lot of help though in determining the exact location. Looks OK, but to my mind it doesn't address it's location very well. I don't recall seeing a planning application either
